In October 2020, an unnamed FBI agent in charge of the Hunter Biden tax probe shut down the case.
Given the alarming amount of evidence, it’s unclear why this would have occurred without influence from Joe Biden.
Due to delays in the case, Hunter successfully avoided paying taxes for years that now fall beyond the statute of limitations.

Now-retired FBI Special Agent Timothy Thibault said a “politically connected” informant corroborated evidence in the case against Hunter at the time.
Thibault told investigators the order to shut down the second informant “shocked” him because “a confidential informant is to support a case.”
Peter Schweizer, who authored the book “Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America’s Progressive Elite,” says, “I have cooperated with the FBI and other law enforcement organizations in the past and will happily do so in the future.”
“The information that I shared was not right-wing or left-wing; it was simply records and documents concerning Biden’s overseas financial activities. Facts are facts. The fact that Thibault sees bias in this work is a reflection of his biases — not mine.”
Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) said, “As you are aware, IRS whistleblowers have affirmed that AUSA [Assistant U.S. Attorney] Wolf prevented investigators from seeking information about Joe Biden’s involvement in Hunter Biden’s criminal business arrangements.”
In Thibault’s testimony, he said, “Sometime in September — and this is a recollection — the FBI did not allow me to go back and review a source file. Okay? I have a recollection of a 1023, which is a source report, raw source report, and of reviewing it and/or approving it,” he said.
“The reason why I say I approved it, sometimes it’s — it involved a sensitive source, I believe. Somehow, I saw that source report,” he said. “And I believe I approved it. At the very least, I reviewed it, I believe. To me, when I first saw it, it didn’t stick out.”
Thibault continued: “I said, ‘Okay. What are your concerns?’ And (he) basically said, ‘Look, the information isn’t of any value to us, number one.’ I deduced from everything he said that they already had the … from some other source, some other channel, maybe not a human source but some other channel,” Thibault testified. “He also said that that person was politically connected and partisan in his view, and he was concerned about the source being on media platforms. At the time, I, you know, was fairly new.”
